I'VE BEEN SICK ALL MY LIFE? (Why I Post Inconsistently)

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 7 ก.ย. 2024
- get to know me and my story about my illnesses and various medical problems i've faced over the years....the short version. No matter what you're personally struggling with, rather it's mentally, physically, or both; please never doubt that you are loved and worth the fight. Everybody has a unique story and unique challenges they're faced with and no mental or physical struggles make you less of a person than everyone else. For those who have illnesses similar or the same as ehlers danlos syndrome, complex regional pain syndrome, chronic depression, etc: your pain is not in your head, you're not crazy, your feelings are valid, and it can get better. There's always going to be bad days every once in awhile but the good thing is they are eventually followed by amazing days. Don't let the bad outweigh the good, try your best to always stay positive and find something you're passionate about in life to enjoy. I apologize for not getting further in detail in this video about my medical issues and how i live with them, I just wanted to get this summary up and posted.

Please stop feeling like your non-animal videos are uninteresting to us or a burden to hear. "You only have to deal with a me video for one day." I enjoy these videos so much. It's as if we're actually talking with you in person. Thank you for these videos 😌 we love you. #DeanBean4Lyfe
Alexis Quintana Thankyou!! I totally agree 💯 %
Omg I'm the top comment lol I hope Taylor sees this 😩
OMG I am so creeped out. I read " You only have to deal with a me video for one day." as soon as she said it. But I do agree.
Alexis Quintana YES NEVER SAY SORRY IF YOUR MAKING NON ANIMAL VIDS sorry I shout a lot
Alexis Quintana #deanbean4life ♡♡
Proof that you can never judge a book by its cover, because to look at you you would never guess that you've had these struggles. Stay you, and thank you for sharing your story with others who might also be battling xxx

It's so sad you always say 'It's ok I'm gonna upload an animal vid, don't worry. You Don't have to worry.' I LOVE WATCHING THE VIDEOS OF YOU. Don't get me wrong, but the real Taylor fans love every video you put out. So don't apologize for uploading a video about you. It's your channel, after all. It's nice getting to know the person who's taken care of all these beautiful animals. I love you Taylor :^)

Taylor has all these problems that bring her so much physical and emotional pain, but she still has such a pure heart and cheerful personality, and actually clarifies the issues with the posting schedule some of her subscribers raised. She's so understanding and hard working, she deserves every one of her subs and tons more. You have all of our support Taylor!! 💖💖
lento very well said 👍🏽
lento 💝💝
lento 🇦🇺
you actually believe her? I mean no offense but this is a girl who post video on the internet....we all know how true that is.
Long Lee So only because she's a person who makes videos on the Internet to entertain people, she can't have any problems whatsoever and automatically has a perfect life? Wow, who the fuck told you that?
I feel the school thing. I missed more than 60 days of school because I was extremely depressed and never felt mentally stable for a long time. I regret not going because I had so much work to get caught up on. Kids would ask why I missed so much I would say "I was sick" they would say "for 4 months?" I would say yes and no one seemed to understand.
Brook Franz Take care of your self♥️ I’m here if you ever need to talk❤️
Same but not all at the same time
Been there before
I still went to school but in most classes I sat there and didn’t do much work. I just didn’t care and couldn’t focus at all with my adhd being so terrible. I didn’t even want to be alive let alone do school work I couldn’t force myself to focus on.
GIRL, don't worry about your "me" videos! We love you no matter what! We don't care about just your animals. I watch your videos for YOU, and so do alot of people! You are a light to TH-cam and we love you SOOOOOOO much. Please, if you feel sick, DO NOT post a video because of us, Because i will be SHOOK if you do! I love you SO MUCH.😚 ps: I LOVE YOUR "ME" VIDEOS QUEEN OF ANIMALS
Totally agree!!
Jordan Butler I agree (even though I still love her animals😉
Jordan Butler I couldnt have said it better
TOTALLY AGREE❤️❤️❤️
Jordan Butler i agree i no how it feels i had pneumonia last year and missed the last month of school everyone would talj about how i wasnt really sick i also dont have many friends we love you just the way you are
I follow Martina and Simon, a couple living in Japan that travel all over the world .. and she has EDS. She tries so hard to not let it get to her and to not get depressed. EDS really sucks...
Yea, it really does suck
VeryAngryProjectilePotato Well this is about Taylor so.
Unicorn Palace So? Ah, yeah. That's right. Taylor is the only one who has EDS. Of course. How dare you learn about EDS through other people, am I right? (Come on, EDS isn't just a Taylor thing. Plus, this comment about Simon and Martina wasn't downplaying or insulting Taylor in any way.)
I'm not really the "touchy-feely" or "sensitive" type of person, but I wanna hug you and tell you everything is okay....you're to beautiful for this world CHEESE
Jar Jar Binks fuck boi
psycho_panda-180 just bcs he wants to hug her doesn't mean he is a fckboi, wtf r u 12?
Jar Jar Binks *I swear to god-*
mesa so cheesy
I'm 11 and I have EDS and I have 1 hamster, 3 cats, rabbit and a crested gecko 🖤 stay strong fellow zebra x
i started watching your videos when you had less than 50.000 subscribers and immediately fell in love with you. You are one of the most genuine, loving and funny youtubers and even though you have no idea who i am i feel like i know you just from watching all your videos. So even though you say you don't want people to pity you i couldn't help but cry during this entire video because i could just see the pain in you eyes even though you put on a brave face. You are such a strong person and i just want you to know that i truly admire you! YOU GO GIRL!
Omg you are so amazing
ive been here since 25k
GamerGirl 12 wowwwww so amazing way to shove it in
maja12maja Omg same!!!
maja12maja that was very very very very very very very nice of you to say that to her
I hate how she feels like we don't want to here about her and are just here for her animals bc we wouldn't be here if it wasn't for her💕💕💕😭
true. you could go to any other SM platform and listen to any other pet owner/seller etc but i'm here because i like TAYLOR. i like her personality, her straightforwardness, her conciseness, and the fact that she's cute isnt really a bad thing :) take care of yourself taylor. however many breaks you need, however honest you need to be, just be YOU. because that's why i subscribed (and binge watched all of your videos 3x)
I hate that mental disorders have turned into a competition. you cant discuss eating habits without someone saying how they survived off green tea for 3 weeks and weighed 4 stone. you can’t discuss your depression because another person has already tried to commit suicide 8 times and theyre only 12. you cant discuss self harm because you punch your leg till it turns purple whilst they slice their arm to the bone. you cant talk about addiction because someone else will talk about facing their crack addiction for 18 years.
Every god damn time you even come close to wanting to reach out you know theres no point because in other people’s eyes you’re never sick enough. there’s always someone worse off. that’s the problem with attitudes to mental health. this ‘oh suck it up you’re not as bad as me/them’ HAS to stop. you have no idea how much a problem affects a person because, okay it might seem like nothing to you but to them their entire world is breaking down and they just have to wait till they either figure it out on their own, or become so sick that people can’t deny it any more. and by then its usually too late.. good for you, for speaking out . . I love your channel and your energy stay strong x
Becky Johns this is too true
Yes! This is so true! Any depression/ anxiety is bad and hard to live with. Why can’t people just realize that and stop competing?
Becky Johns I'm not sure who you surround yourself with, but that isn't normal. And not everyone who has anxiety or depression talks about it in that way.
I relate to that so much. Any time I mention my bipolar disorder someone either says they have something worse or they think I'm just happy a moment and sad another so it's no big deal. I don't even tell people anymore or talk about how I feel at all
The fact that you perceive it as a competition is most likely a mental disorder in itself
I have eds and I ended up tearing my acl walking up the stairs in high school (my first real clue) I got loads of the same comments about how I'm just a big baby and I'm fine and I look fine. These comments came mostly from my parents and from extended family. I posted a fb post saying i tested and came up pos for eds and my cousin said I should get a "second opinion" on it because I seem fine. It's infuriating. I have POTs and EDS I.
It's very painful most of the time but I never really talk about it because people have always told me to suck it up and shut up :( super annoying, arguably worse than the actual pains of the illness.
I honestly dont care that you post inconsistently, it always makes my day when you post! And these "me videos" are fine, we care about you and these videos are fine.
wifidify she should post more about herself.
I feel like teacher should have been fired. Taylor your a very loving person and those people don't deserve to be your friend. #BEAUTIFULTAYLOR #HELPFULTAYLOR
Unfortunately teachers are often the worst bullies particularly to children with health problems. I once got a teacher screaming at me when I was 15 because I couldn't walk fast between lessons after I broke my back. Also kids who are carer's for disabled parents or siblings often get crap.
Geez. Did they KNOW you had broken your back?
Oh yeah, it was only 1 teacher the rest where cool and defended me. TBH I got more crap from teachers about being tired when I was caring for my disabled mother. But I did have some great and understanding teachers as well.
I have Crohn's disease and I miss a lot of school for hospital and I relate so hard with the "people thinking there's nothing wrong with you" thing. just because we look fine, doesn't mean we aren't in huge pain. I get migraines, stomach pains, fatigue, joint pain and cramps, but people tell me to just suck it up because 'everyone gets stomach aches!' ERRRRGHHHHH! Autoimmune diseases suck. I hope you keep carrying on kicking ass and taking care of yourself as best you can.
Jenny Rose Crohnie over here! Sooooo many people don't understand 🙃
nlk1203 Yessss! Like "you look fine!" Mate do you want photos of my intestines?
LazyLlama02 yeah!!
Same here. Sometimes I wish that I had some sort of stomach cast so that people would see there's actually something wrong with me
xX GloriousGleamer Xx Thanks! That means a lot. I've only had a migraine once and it really sucks. I hope it gets better for you
This definitely makes me feel less alone. I struggle with health problems too, severe allergies and stomach problems, migraine headaches and anxiety/depression. I often forget that other people are struggling like this too. You are an inspiration to me, thank you for sharing your story.
It's kinda sad that you always have to apologize for making a video not about animals. I personally love these "sitting and telling stories" videos, we can get to know more about you through them. Do what you like to do. If you feel like making a story time video, do it. If you feel like doing an animal video, do it. Be like Jenna Marbles, make your channel interesting for yourself first and just then think about your subscribers. We love everything you give us❤
Elvija Venčiūtė iii
Elvija Venčiūtė iiiiiiiiii
Elvija Venčiūtė I agree! Taylor, I hope you feel better❤️
Fatima Al Zahra Al Abdawani u
yes agreed
"I'm extra delicate, but not so much because I've been through it all and am still going strong." -something I'm going to be saying for a while, because, with my history, I should be dead by now, if not homeless and addicted to everything under the sun. But you know, I still cry when someone tells me about their animals
My new favourite saying, so true
I don't get the animals thing
TinRelic1. It's me referring to how sensitive I am, I burst out into tears when someone shows me pictures of their dogs and cats generally.
Waiting for your channel to hit 1M! Edit:(Thanks for the likes!) I hope Taylor see this
Herpatilogy 101 waiting for 10 mil
I am the derpy squirtle waiting for 7 billion!
Waiting for 620k ;)

One like is a hug for Taylor
Your just doing that to get likes

Claire well that's creepy
I relate to you soo much. My freshman year of high school (I am 20 now) I started to get really fatigued. I went to my doctor and got a few tests a 14-year-old would get when complaining of fatigue like Mono and Iron levels. When those few tests came back normal we ran more tests checking my thyroid, white cells, red cells, platelets, vitamins in my body like b12 and so many more tests I can't even remember what they were. Everything came back normal. I went to a cardiologist, allergist, endocrinologist, neurologist, psychiatrist, pulmonologist, gynecologist, rheumatologist, gastroenterologist, and a sleep disorder specialist. The only things the doctors found was that I have exercise induced asthma and environmental allergies. I drank coffee, was put on anti-depressants, got b 12 shots weekly, took a boat load of vitamins. I even got acupuncture every week and did biofeedback. Changed my diet, cut out gluten.. After over a year of doing this, they finally diagnosed me with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. At the time Chronic Fatigue Syndrom (CFS) wasn't very well known and tbh it still isn't today. I struggled with school and to stay on my dance team as well as go to my studio dance. I lost a lot (all but 2) of my "friends" because I was called "flaky" since I was sleeping for 19 hours a time on the weekends and couldn't hang out. I missed at least 1 day of school a week and only went for half days. I was taken to court by my school for truancy. I got called into the principles office and got yelled at, told I was faking it, and that I was never going to go anywhere in life. I barely graduated. I have been out of high school for 2 years and still am very fatigued. I am not in college and do not have a job but I am much happier now. I feel for you so much when you said people thinking that you're faking and not being able to make friends. Also with the teacher yelling at you in class, same thing happened to me and it's honestly traumatizing. I stopped making youtube videos around that time too and seeing this video makes me want to start up again. My animals we're and are the thing that keeps me going. If you ever want to talk or vent to someone I'm here for you girl. 💕
Vinetta Wallis same
Ignore the first reply, they're being rude. That's really awful, I can't imagine that kind of experience. It really tells a lot about you though, despite all that shit you've persevered! I hope all the best for you, and keep fighting. You are strong.
Vinetta Wallis try telling that to the people who read 800 page books. It may take a while because there are very many of those people.
Hello! I just wanted to say that I totally understand what you went through! I have CFS too and was diagnosed in the 7th grade after about a year of blood tests and going to every expert imaginable! They thought it was Mono but then diagnosed it as CFS. I started reading your comment and almost started crying because I can 100% relate to you and having CFS. I was homeschooled from the 7th grade to my sophomore year, and then I was homeschooled through a 2 day a week "academy" with actual teachers and homework and stuff. Then I found an herbalist who has literally given me my life back. I am now 20, just finished my 2nd year in community college and am planning on transferring to a university!!
I suspect I have cfs as we have not found any reason for my fatigue other than low igG levels but they raised after immunizations but I'm still super fatigued. I get what you mean by your friends saying ur flaky. I never get invited to do anything bc I either cancel or I can't keep up. Even my mom says going to the store with me is like going to the store with an old lady. Everyone just thinks I'm lazy
I seriously love you so much. Celiacs disease is no joke. I get so mad at people who make fun of others who eat a gluten free diet because it can make people very very sick. I actually work at Chipotle and I get so worried when I have a customer come in with an allergy. I'm always afraid I'll make them sick somehow. We have had someone come in who needed us to actually cook all of her food fresh because she was that sensitive. I'm proud I work for a company that accommodates for these things. I'm also so sorry kids were so mean to you in school. No one deserves that kind of treatment. I'm sorry this comment is so long and kinda weird, but I just have so much to say. I love you, Tay. Ps hey cheese!
Krysta Briley my brother has celiacs and he's 6 😭
I feel so bad for these people ;-;
The problem is that most of the people who claim to have celiacs have never been tested and make the assumption that they are celiac based on the fact they get a swollen stomach if they eat to much bread. This is what leads to people thinking its a joke, very sad.
Krysta I love that u r concerned about people's illnesses
and I am glad that u care about others needs...
Atticus Finch I agree with u in like EVERY WAY LOL
I don't really have medical issues. But I am a wimp and I just constantly sprain stuff. There is never a time when I don't feel a physical pain. Sometimes I faint and get crippling stomach pains. I have extremely sensitive skin that has random breakouts of rashes and it takes weeks to get them away. I am so proud of how you keep pushing through everyday. You inspire me so much.
I love you, I was in the exact same boat but my issues were depression and anxiety. I was never able to go to school and wound up extremely lonely. Still struggle a lot but I'm hanging in there. You have my support 💕
kelsey905 Same here
Same. Nothing lasts forever I promise
kelsey905 you are just like my gf, exactly the same
kelsey905 I have anxiety and depression too and its really hate especially in my middle school so I can relate
C S most teachers are beyond oblivious and just don't care. But good for you for finishing high school! I never even got my diploma because of how bad school was for me :(
You said you were struggling to make friend and focusing on being more outgoing. The reason we all subscribe is because we love your personality. Yes I love your animals and your content but if it wasn't for your amazing personality I wouldn't subscribe. I know that as your subscribers we don't have a personal relationship and it's very different but we all love you and support you with whatever you do. Your health is more important than content.
Very sad 😓.
And you dont need to thank us for 600k subs you did this yourself be proud☺
b.b bunnies ur hereeeeeeeeeeeeeeee want to subscribe to u soooooooooooooo bad to bad my parents won't allow me
b.b bunnies yeah she makes me laugh
I have Ehlers Danlos Syndrome type 3. I would never have guessed you have EDS too. Crazy how connected you can feel to a complete stranger all of a sudden. Sending much love and spoons your way! 😘❤️🥄
I have type 4 so I totally get it everyone thinks you look fine but on the inside you are so sick
Finally some EDS type 3 / hEDS representation! As someone with the condition I totally know where you’re coming from! Thank you for being an inspiration to eds-ers everywhere! You are amazing!
I JUST WANNA HUG HER
sop bal me too
Same
sop bal be careful you might break her
sop bal taylor its ok 103 ppl want to hug you xD
jerk
Omg I'm literally in tears I've been watching your videos for such a long time and for you to say that you have ehlers danlos syndrome takes my breath away. My sister got diagnosed when she was 14 and it's so rare I would have never in a million years guessed that you were going through that too. My heart reaches out to you ❤️❤️ we love you girl and you will always have us for support❤️❤️❤️
I'm literally crying watching this, I can relate so bad I don't go to school I have headaches migraines and fatigue! My
school never understands me and because I'm 14, I've lost friend and family from falling out and now I'm getting anxiety and depression and the thing is nobody understands and thinks I'm fine!! it's so hard we've tried so hard and we have no clue what's going on and all my doctors still don't know! it's so hard so I totally understand you :(
Amy Wilshaw keep going back and seeing doctors until someone listens, it took me while to get taken seriously but the more you fight your side the more they have to listen, best of luck x
Amy Wilshaw you can talk to me too c:
Amy Wilshaw I get severe migraines at school so bad that I can't see anything because of the flashing and dizziness I get . I go to the teachers to see if I can go home but they say no because they just think It's a normal headache but it's so much more and I have them often aswell 😡
Sophie Mendes same
Amy Wilshaw can you please go read my latest comment? I think it will hepp
What really gets me is the fact that she can go through so much pain for that many years and still has her head held high. That’s a true role model right there. I know I’m only 12, but Taylor if you’re seeing this, which I hope you are, you’re my role model. Keep your head up ❤️
I can relate. I have so many health problems. And I still don't know fully what all is wrong with me. I was always in and out of school and ended up homeschooling through highschool. All of my health problems limit me a lot. I try my best not to let it control my life. When I started training my Service Dog i started my TH-cam Channel. So many of my subscribers are so supportive and caring. We ended up making an Instagram account and aside from people just being able to comment on our TH-cam they are able to message us on Instagram. I think the highlights of my days are when I see comments on our TH-cam or messages on our Instagram. I love replying back to everyone and just being able to talk. Live videos have become a new favorite thing. I want to do them everyday. But I try to opt on just doing them on the weekend. It's not just about having a channel and being popular and having a ton of views or subscribers. It's about the connection with every single person that comments, messages, or views. It's about the love you give them and the love you get back.
honestly how do you only have 618 k subs? You honestly deserve more like 6 million...
Sharon Buckley-Wheeler 619 now
Sharon Buckley-Wheeler no she should be the first second or third person who has the most subs
Taylor
Maybe you didn't have friends when you were little but now you have all of us and we all love and support you and we don't care if you don't post for a little while and I will never think of you as the "sick girl" From Abby
Well she dosen't know a Shit of us. I wouldn't say that Fans are better than Friends ._.
Lala1002 Msp not to be mean but her fans love and support her like friends do and I think that us fans think of Taylor as our friend.
Gummy ugbugv
If I was you. . . I probably would’ve talked back to that teacher. . . then tell the principal.
Nicole L Richards
Some teachers hate me for my mouth :/
They do things unreasonably and I’m the only kid who really stands up and none of the teachers can actually win an argument with me. If a teacher talked to me like that..
I would of been so pissed
Nicole L Richards I would of too
Nicole L Richards same
Nicole L Richards I would have 2 lol 😝
Nicole L Richards I would’ve punched the teacher then probably throw them out the window 😅 I never talked back to my teachers, but I would do it for someone else
I think i can speak for everyone who watches your videos when I say this: You are great at what you do. We all love your videos, whether they have Cheese in them or not. You don't have to apologize.
well... I mean, the cheese bit is debatable... jks xD
All your 618k subscribers love you for who you are. Your TH-cam family gets bigger everyday. People don't love you just for your animals, they love you for who you are. If you don't feel well one day, then a week goes bye and you still don't feel great, don't feel like you have to make vids for us, if you don't feel well, then you don't feel well. If people ask why your not posting and that you always have excuses for why your not posting, then they are idiots. People care about you, so if you don't feel the best one day, don't feel like we will hate you for not posting one day, it's fine! Even though you feel sick, you have so many animals that you care for and love with all your heart. Those animals love you just the same, and so do you subscribers, your animals wouldn't be in your life if you didn't believe if yourself. ❤️Take the turtles you saved, you saved 80 turtles lives because you believed in yourself. You just be you and you will have the best life that people would trade their life with yours for the world. Your subscribers love you for who you are. We love you Taylor! ❤️❤️❤️😇😍
Mia Peach! She's got 619k now
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Mia Peach! Well said my friend!!
You are getting more subs by the hour, no make that minute. U go girl!
Samara The Samurai 🙏🙏
You're actually really nice and I like you a lot after seeing this, I wrongly thought you were different to what you are!
Much RESPECT. your such an Intelligent, Gorgeous, Strong woman with a golden heart. i will always support you. keep doing your thing. thaks for sharing your knowledge and life experience.
Taylor, you are SO special to everyone that follows you. If people can't handle a "me" video then they dont deserve your beautiful and fun videos. If you have to take time for yourself then DO IT because ima be SHOOK if you need it and don't. Just know we have your back and support you in any way we can. ❤
Thank you so much! I'm also chronically ill (I have an aggressive form of familial adeamatous polyposis with Gardner's Syndrome variations and tumors as well as an undiagnosed auto-immune disorder) and so are most of my friends, one of whom also has Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. I've struggled with massive health issues for several years now and, with all the non-stop pain I was in and never having the energy to even leave my house, I isolated myself from the outside world and gave up on social interaction in general, which is when I really dove into youtube. Your channel has brought so much joy and fun into my life, when I discovered a few months ago that you were chronically sick as well, I was ecstatic! Not that you were sick, of course, but it gave me hope that, even with all of my issues, I could still do something and make a positive impact on people's lives. Thank you so much for everything Taylor!
For everyone that disliked the video what the hell honestly though she told us this and for whatever reason you just hate on it. There is literally NOTHING in this video to dislike. I just don't understand why you would even hate on this video that she decided to share with us, do you even know how much confidence it takes to post something knowing that some people will hate on it and I don't mean people in general I mean the ignorant jerks that gave a thumbs down on this vid, like seriously? You actually did that, just tell me why ok actually comment why in the hell you disliked the video because apparently it's so important to your ignorant self. THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH HER OR ANYTHING IN THIS CONTENT SHE IS TELLING US SOMETHING IMPORTANT TO HER, AND ITS NOT TO MAKE US FEEL SYMPATHETIC FOR HER OR TO GET HERSELF SOME ATTENTION, and if you think that then you are a person who thinks everyone is trying to get attention or something but in reality it's you but what's sad is that it's not one person but 392 people who are like that. And give a good reason to why this video is deserving of your hate because if not then take you hate and get out of here.
Taylor is an amazing person and you tuber I love her content and so do thousands of other people, we support you(Taylor) and hope you keep making videos💜💜
moon.childk Well, technical if you think about it, the people who disliked the video might just dislike the fact that Taylor has all these sicknesses, and it might be possible that the people who liked the video like that she is suffering because they hate her channel, thats why I never like nor dislike videos like this, I just leave a supportive comment, and go on to watch another of her videos.
moon.childk maybe those people who disliked her videos were the once who used to bully her (just a thought)
i agree
Bots.
45k people are against you, haters. And there are only 491 of you.
As a teen currently out of school due to my own "cluster of issues" it is tremendously inspiring to see your resilience and success! Thank you for addressing the lack of understanding from teachers and peers who see you as weak or lazy for not being able to attend school, as well as the struggle of being labeled the "sick girl."
The dislikes are her teachers
True lol
I get it man, being sick is hard. I have epilepsy (and it made me miss alot of school too) and while my doctors were still trying to find the right balance of pills for me during freshman and sophomore year my friends at school would just joke about me always 'skipping' school. I would always joke around too, like I would say "idk what they're talking about i'm never here", (it wasn't as funny when I had to come in and stay there for 6 hours on Saturday mornings to make up for all that I missed but I digress) Anyway, I hate it when people who don't know you try and come at you when they don't know anything about you.
Anyway, sometimes when I would have 'mini seizures' in the mornings, I would come in to school after lunch when I've gotten enough rest to finish off my last 5 classes and one week I came in late 3 days in a row and always left my late note with the same attendance lady at the office since she was the only one there those days, and on the 3rd day she was done with me even though I did nothing. I truly try to keep my epilepsy on the down-low so much so that I would only tell the teachers when something could've triggered it, like lights screwing around or not enough energy was in me from the day before and had to eat my breakfast in class, but only like 5 people in school knew because like you I didn't want to be the sick girl. And since this woman was done with me she looked at me with the worst face and arms crossed and asked "This is the 3rd day in a row you're not here, TELL ME WHY"
I was not at all okay with this because 1.) You are testing me right now 2.) You don't know anything about my life fuck you and 3.)You're gonna make me late for class. So I just looked at her and with the straightest face and my eyebrow lifted and said "My epilepsy." And she just looked at me with the guiltiest look on her face and looked down at her desk while she gave me my note back and said "Okay go."
I walked out like a champion with my donut and pig-in-a-blanket in hand.
Wow that must have taken so much to not scream at her I would have. It sucks that you have epilepsy, I don't know what its like but it seems bad no one should have to go through that. And that office lady is pretty rude to confront you like that. I hope that life gets better for you especially at school.
Bre Flo I have epilepsy too, and graduated in '15. I ended up switching to home bound to finish out my senior year. High school sucked ass, I'm sorry 😞😪
I can relate the teachers always are like your purposefully missing school because you can get away with it because I have a chronic illness. But when I miss school Im not having f***ing fun. Im stuck in bed feeling pain for 1-4 days
I’m so sorry to hear of your illnesses. We had a similar experience with our son who was diagnosed with colitis. After months of fighting so hard to be well enough to return to high school, he had a flare and missed 3 days of classes. One of his teachers had the nerve to say to him when he returned to school “let’s not fall into old habits”, like he had a choice about experiencing terrible pain in his gut, schmuck! Just to let you know, you’re not alone with your frustrations and you’re a strong, amazing young lady.
Taylor shouldn't have 623k, she should have 1 million subs
i wouldnt be surprised if she got there before the year is up.
more
Furry Friends23 No, one million... by 78
Taylor, your story is so similar to mine. I have been ill since I was 2. I was being hospitalized for months at a time. Every test possible was being done, but every thing came back normal. I missed a lot of school. Finally at age 6 after sending me to every specialist except a cardiologist I had my first of many diagnoses. I was diagnosed with POTS (postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome) I was improving, starting to have a normal child hood. I had lived in Las Vegas at the time, the medical care isn't very good. They were missing simple things. At the age of 8 my family moved to Massachusetts. At 10 years old my family went on vacation. We had noticed a darkening of this skin but blew it off as an awkward tan. The nest day the rash was covering almost half my body. I couldn't move my right side but I didn't really let it stop me. We went home a few days later and went to the doctor. My doctor said the pain was in my head and that I was fine. That it had to do with my depression. We went to my psychologist and she sent me to a dermatologist immediately. I was diagnosed with a autoimmune condition that affects 1 in every 200,000 people under the age of 50. It's called scleroderma. It causes joint damage, scar tissue build up and if left untreated can spread to the organs. I was constantly getting tests. At 12 I went into remission. That's when I started having other problems. I was constantly in severe pain in my joints. My yearly x rays were done and they saw no reason why I shouldn't have been able to walk. I was told it was in my head by many doctors. They said I was fine and just wanted attention. October of 2016 I tripped and dislocated my knee. After that it dislocated many times a day. They thought it was odd that I was having this and the constant severe pain. I was sent to a geneticist who looked at my hip (it subluxates with almost every movement) she saw how hyper mobile I was and had no doubt in her mind. Since then I have started to have many more joints that have been affected. The pain is manageable but it's harder not being normal. More recently I was diagnosed with dysmotility, a condition that effects the muscles of my intestines and stomach making digestion almost impossible. I am 14 now and I would say I'm doing pretty well. I have since got into show rabbits and have found a hobby. I have also always loved animal. I haven't had a day in y life that I didn't have more than 2 pets. As of right now I have 12 bettas, 5 rabbits, 2 Guinea pigs, a mouse, a hamster and 3 dogs. I want to get into reptiles after I am down a few tanks. I absolutely love your videos and look forward to a new one. I would love if maybe you could check out one of my instagram accounts my pet one is @bunnies.and.bettas and my health one is @_spoonie.life_ I love you and keep being amazing!
Goodness, you must have had some horrible doctors if they said you were fine but you kept checking in becausr of pain. There was obviously something wrong.
I show in 4h. I have 3 rescues and 2 from breeders. I want to breed int the future but I don't know if I will
Eventually. I want to breed holland lips.
That teacher is very mean. Her job is to teach you and not to get mad when you get sick. that made me upset ): poor taylor
NervuleNerd sadly they dont share our pain so they dont know, if shit like that happend often they start thinking kids are faking it or make a big fuss over nothing, i felt that pain that she she is feeling and i rhink not every teacher is like that, now i have one teacher who is making fun of it but only if i approve it and he knows when he crossed the line and starts apolagising
NervuleNerd, I live in a small town and I'm Epileptic...I spent 7-10th Grade being bullied by teachers who thought I was faking...I suffer from Complex Partial Seizures and don't faint, but look like I'm daydreaming (which got me into more trouble)...
NervuleNerd I wan in a coma my 9nth grade I went into a coma for a while. After I woke up I went back to school. They told me I had detention....for six months. Good times...
NervuleNerd that teacher should have got fired
Finding out more and more people have EDS makes me so emotional, im so happy to know I'm not alone
Don't worry about what people gonna say about your medical problems! The TH-cam family loves you and we will forever will.
We fucking adore you and we are all your friends fuck school😭 we all love you here..❤
not ok I
Taylor! My best friend and I are moving into our new apartment in North Carolina this August. We would love for you to come visit us any time and maybe check out college life, as we're right down the road from campus. The environment is very relaxed and accepting, I feel like we could show you a good (hopefully low anxiety) time! Everyone please thumbs up so she can see this!
Heather Wells I thought she lived in Texas....
Blue stop you are so so mean stop it
I live in NC
Mary Kreglo I think you misread Blue's comment, it states that Taylor needs a house for all her fish tanks and animals, because people will probably not appreciate them in a small(er) environment like an apartment, dorm room, etc.
What college?
I have MS and this video was extremely brave and inspiring. People don't know how hard it is to talk about health; it's hell especially as a young adult. Thank you for doing this.
My mum has that
Dang I wouldn't be able to deal with the pain she is one strong cookie
Crescent Moon Me too! I have CTS (Carpel Tunnel Syndrome) and it's nothing compared to what she's going through. I feel so bad for her, but I know she's taking care of herself.
One of my sister's has celiac disease, I have sacroiliac syndrome and because of it the both of us missed school a lot. We were bullied for it and no one believed we were ever really sick either, the days I did go to school only one or two of my teachers throughout the years were ever sympathetic and caring; the rest were all ignorant and cruel. I was a good student the days I would go, I did very well academically, my teachers told me I was smart just needed to show up more and "tough it out." Because of my "illness" sitting for prolonged periods of times are literally such a pain. My hips and sacral area also twist and get out of alignment easily, I am on pain medication and see a chiropractor bi weekly; but the pain and distress it causes in day to day life is very real; I understand the whole "being out going but also very anxious/nervous about new people and surroundings." Among a few other physical problems I have like asthma to name another,I also have ptsd from an abusive childhood and anxiety/panic disorder along with depression; I have a difficult time with making and sustaining interpersonal relationships and sometimes being out all day is very draining and physically wearing. So of course I turned to the internet for friends, and managed to make three life long friends I have known for 7 years now, we are finally meeting for New Years Eve this year and I am very excited and also very anxious but my point is, to anyone reading this with similar problems or experiences; YOU aren't alone and YOU don't need to explain yourself a million times to people who don't bother to understand, or even tyr to be respectful of you and whatever is going on. Good days, bad days and soso days...when it comes to the end of the day don't let it get to you as hard as it is and if it does it's ok, don't let it be the end of your efforts on trying to connect with others. I promise you there are 7. something billion people in the world; you'll find someone who will open their heart and arms to you eventually. Trust me even that one person, when that happens will somehow wash away the self doubt and loathing from all those assholes over the years; stay strong.
McJiggles Von Dunkin preach 🙌🏼
We are all her for you, Taylor. I don't have any physical disorders but I have pretty severe anxiety and feel extremely nervous all the time, nobody in my family really understands at it except my aunt and most of my family will just yell at me for being nervous... I just moved last year and even after a full school year I have no friends and hate my new school. I may even transfer to online school because of it. Its really hard to push through everything in life but we just all have to keep going and live with it.
Try escitalopram it's the only thing that's worked for me. It's hard to get people to understand that it's anxiety rather than being difficult and attention seeking. :)
Jayne Keilloh ok, thank you. 😀
Aw man, Taylor :c That really sucks. I hope you know how loved and admired you are, without even knowing about your illnesses! Honestly when I first found you, I just thought you were some pretty girl hoarding cool animals for the fun of it (as bad as that sounds I'm really sorry cries) but the more I watched your videos the more I came to know that you're a deep intellectual who cares about animals and educating people about them! I am sorry about your illnesses and the struggles you go through, I'll be praying for you
Don't worry now you got 621k Friends! 😊😊
Plus ur loving Pets/Family!
Aloha x Vee 623k now
I don't understand how anyone could ever dislike Taylor's videos ! This girl & her videos are dope !
Love ya Taylor ❤️
Xx_Mystic_vV the people who dislike her vids are probably holding their devices upside down 🙃
Xx_Mystic_vV IKR!!!
I'm so glad that I clicked on this video! I didn't even know that you had EDS. I have hEDS and I constantly dislocate my thumbs, hips, ribs, shoulders, etc. I currently go to Physical therapy for it. I also have Congenial Adrenal Hyperplasia and have to take medication 3 times a day on top of meds for mast cell activation syndrome. I'm also suspecting POTS. And I'm only 14. Knowing that you go through some of the same things I do makes me like you even more. Love you Taylor
Grace Lee me too Hun I have it in my shoulders hips knees and ankles and I’m a part time wheelchair user bc of it 😒 and I also have JIA to what’s your insta Hun I’m trying to find people that go through the same difficulties I do 😘💕
Grace Lee I have hEDS also!!!! I was rested for POTS but fortunately it was negative. I hope we can chat!
Same, except I also have a paralyzed stomach, I hope things get better for you
Grace Lee I also have CAH and I have never met someone else with it
I don't go through anything like that but I still understand what your going through and I hope you stay strong and don't let that get in the way of your life
I’m in my senior year of high school and I’ve gone through many of the same things (but my migraines were never so severe that I could NEVER go to school). Since 2nd grade I’ve broken my ankles about 13 times and my wrists a couple of times as well. The first solid diagnosis that I’ve gotten, aside from fibromyalgia since about 9 y/o, was EDS3 and OI this year. No one ever believed me that I was breaking all of these bones and I pretty much lost all of my friends. I’m 6th grad one of my teachers told and entire class of students that I was faking my broken bones when I had to be in a wheelchair.
Hearing you talk about this almost made me cry, especially the part about being so used to the pain that nothing can really hurt you anymore. It’s just something I’ve never been able to put into words.
Thank you so much for sharing this video. ❤️❤️
I just found you channel today and I have been binge watching videos for ages! I know exactly how you feel regarding school. I cant go to school because I am too sick. I have ME POTS and CVS and my cardiologist thinks i may have EDS. I have lost most of my friends because if this and people (including some doctors) dont believe my illnesses exist
I also have ME, POTs and suspected EDS. Nice to know we’re not alone. Spoonies are the best (if you know that analogy) :D
I have fibromyalgia, POTS, Celiac, Trigiminal and Ocipital neuralgia. It always catches me off guard when I see others online have POTS because I've never met anyone in real life with it. I totally get the trouble with making and keeping friends because of being sick. It's a bummer:/
Hi Holly. Are you on facebook? There are lots of support groups there. I know EDS or me can bring out POTS and I know a person or two who have CVS because of EDS or actually it's more part of EDS and gastroparesis that brings. I have CVS myself but not the others..I just found Taylor's channel love her persona and hunor and obviously the animals. All the best to you. X
Holy cow, I have POTS, Daily Migraines(7yrs) and many other small ailments... so glad this video is so popular to make people realize how common issues really are... just like Taylor my entire adolescent years were just lonely missing school and being sick...a happy life is possible, but you have to work for it and stay positive, good luck to fellow pots sufferers
Gurl sick or not, post everyday or not as long as you're happy doing what you love we're here for you
Cristhel Axalan dude what do you mean sick or not if she's sick SHE CANT UPLOAD EVERYDAY! jeez some of her subscribers are so heartless I swear
xEndiePearlx she said "post everyday OR NOT"
xEndiePearlx I know that. I meant whether she's sick or not her subscribers are still going to want to watch her because of her
xEndiePearlx you misread what she is saying she is say sick or not, post everyday or not , as long as you're happy doing what you love we're here for you. so basically she means that her subscribers will support her no matter what not that she should post everyday even though she's sick
No... just no. If she doesn't feel well, then she shouldn't post. Posting require work and energy and it would be just heartbreaking to see her work if she feels sick. DO. NOT. POST. IF. YOU. FEEL. SICK. The most important thing is if she feels sick is to drink water, sleep a lot, take meds and eat healthy food. Don't work.
I don't want to see Taylor sick in front of a camera. I think I would fucking cry.
I love her so so so much, I couldn't bear it if she tried to post something while sick.
Even if she really wanted to update something, it's just not okay.
There are priorities in life, and health is in front of work and hobbies. Get that?
So. Don't say 'post whenever you want yolo'.
Say: Post when you CAN.
Post if you feel like your health is stable.
Don't force yourself Taylor. I love you.
But if you put hobbies and work in front of your health,
I don't think I'll support you as much. You're not a machine. You are our friend.
You are such a great person and we all love you (not in a weird way)
As I child with many chronic illnesses I feel u. The struggling is real. My chronic illnesses are:autism, type one diabetes, arthritis, POTS,epilepsy, asthma, and I have like 10 allergies. Now I am well enough to go to school twice a week and be homeschooled 3 times a week
Taylor will be fine.
However, pretty sure someone died screaming at the start of the video.
I feel your pain but I don't try to ignore my medical problems. Sadly, my mother does. She can't handle the fact the if I get another major heart attack (my heart erupts into tinny heart attacks every so often, not that she knows), there is a 98% chance that I will die. I mean, I'm 13 and I've already accepted my death. Please notice how I said another.
Tear Drops awwww don't worry things will get better. Miracles do happen.
The Stephy Show Thank you
The Stephy Show Don't worry. Keep fighting and believing. I'm sure you will be fine. I will be praying for you (as I'm a Christian) and I know God will answer my prayer.
If you can't stay alive for too long, do whatever makes you at least feel alive. There's a huge difference between being alive and feeling alive
Tear Drops I hope the best for you don't stop believing be strong
The story about the HEc teacher kinda happened to me, I have IBS and Coeliac disease, so I missed a lot of school and my French teacher told me to suck it up (don't know why she hated me, i was fluent in French by age 4 haha) so I just ranted at her in French, and never showed up to another French class :)
Sonny Whitehouse honestly that story is fantastic
Sonny Whitehouse the same thing happened to me but I just stayed quiet. I also have Ibs. And any advice you have would help, I've never talked to some else with the same condition.
Sonny Whitehouse how did she react xD
angellina fosse I have it as well I'd love to talk to you it's been hard for me too
Sonny Whitehouse GOOD FOR YOU !!!
Oh honey, sending you big huge hugs!! I’ve been watching your videos for a while now, but somehow missed this video. I also have Ehlers Danlos Syndrome! And I have a pacemaker because I pass out, food sensitivities, lipedema with lymphedema... I’m 30 and I feel like I am 89. It’s a lonely way to live, and I can sympathize with you SO MUCH. I wish you lived close to me so we could be friends that understand each other! Thank you for your awesome videos. Hugs and love.
Well Taylor you have 600,000+ friends here for you! Keep fighting! ✊
Plus 20+ animals
Jelly Fish y
We love you Taylor! Stay strong girly. You are amazing. I can't believe how rude people can be😔 you are not just "the sick girl." You are TAYLOR NICOLE DEAN
Your story reflects so much of my sisters, she has crohn's disease which doesn't affect you 24/7 but when it does it's horrific meaning although appearing fine most days at school she would miss massive chunks when it was affecting her. Teachers would also make bitchy remarks along with the pupils and she'd been bullied since primary school (grade 5-6) because she used to have to be tubed up to a machine as she was unable to digest food properly and they'd call her a freak etc. Without the tubes however, people assumed she was being a wimp or overreacting. It was horrible to witness and terrible for her to have to go through and as crohn's is a chronic illness (for life) she's 22 and still faces these issues in the work place when she needs time off. I wish people weren't so ignorant. Love you Taylor
HowToArt I'm 14, and I have ulcerative colitis, another IBD that effects many people, and yes, it is difficult to explain absences because it's an "invisible disease" but it was nice to see something along the lines of my disease in the comment section(:
I have ulcerative colitis/IBD too. I totally agree that people can be horrible to you when you have an invisible illness. Sending good vibes to you both! I feel you!
Dear Taylor, I also have EDS and a lot of other medical issues, I have had a lot of surgeries and also suffer from a 24/7 headache. I completely understand how difficult life is with an INVISIBLE DISABILITY. Animals of any form have been known to help those who are disabled; I currently have a Labrador Retriever puppy who is a service dog in training.
VIRTUAL HUG!!!!
*I love personal videos. Don't worry(:*
I'm so happy that you made this video.I am a 11 year old girl with health problems.What/how you described your health problems are very similar to mine I hurt all the time,I have very strong migraines,allot of stomach pain and sometimes my whole body hurts.Like you said I have been in a lot of hospitals.I have missed a lot of school days but the doctor think its just something that I got from my family.I take about 5-8 pills a day and I have about 3 pain killers.
I'm glad you made this video because you life seens so amazing on camera.And to see that you have delt with something like this... (I don't mean to say I'm happy your sick).....Its a good feeling knowing I'm not the only one with these health problems.
I do hope you see this 💓💓
No Hate please
amber baeza stay strong girlie
amber baeza I go through the same things as you do.ive been in the hospital multiple times and it's so weird because of how young I am
amber baeza stat string dear❤
much love and blessings from Vietnam
amber baeza why would ppl hate?
You have no idea how happy I am that you uploaded, I love all your content, I watch every video over and over every day. If you made a video of you saying one word for an hour, I'd still watch it. Also I love your new leaf insect. I also would kill to have merch, but before I could get any it sold out :c
Edit: heyyy the merch got restockedddd
RecruitSwatGuy Omg just imagine a little pin of the leaf insect I would die for that
That's nice
RecruitSwatGuy you are a amazing person and so is Taylor
O MY FREAKING GOD SHE LIKED UR COMMENT TELL HER TO LIKE MINE SOMEONE PLZZZZZZZZZZ
you should defs make a video on EDS, I know a few people with the disease and I feel like there may be people who would feel less alone x
Yes I have eds also just found this today
I have two brothers. They both have autism. My older brother has scoliosis and had to have back surgery. I love you so much Taylor you always bring me joy I laugh whenever your videos are on. I don't care how much you post you are so amazing the way you are! I'm your best friend in the entire wold no matter if I met you our not. Keep on doing what you do ;)
Aubrey And Milo 😊
Aubrey And Milo well said and I have autism and ADHD and a loud off overs and I watch my little brother die so I hope your brother gets well
MALAKAI Thomas aww, I feel so sorry for you, I hope you could have a good life😭🙂
Aubrey And Milo I have autism and it makes it really hard to learn and make friends
Aubrey And Milo I have Aspergers
I also just learned that I was sick since I was an infant. I don't want to go into detail, but it was getting bad. Turns out, a diet change and lots of mess can cure me. I'm just glad to know that it isn't uncommon for stuff like this to happen to people. 😘
I'm a medical school student and a researcher at a neurosurgery department. My field of study is chronic pain patients and their psychiatric condition. I have basically read every study that has been published during the last 15 years on chronic pain and anxiety, depression and chilhood trauma.
The new scientific consenses starts to be that these pain disorders like fibromyalgia and complex regional pain syndrome ( and chronic fatigue syndrome) are stressdisorders. Kognitive therapy, meditation and life-stress control are the most important factors to consider. If you can manage your anxiety, the pain will greatly subside. Sadly, the moment when you need to be the most alert, like school, you are also the most anxious, which triggers pain.
Mari H. Wow, this was a powerful response. I was just having a slightly similar conversation with a person who works with people with particular mental disorders like pedophelia and we were discussing if mental disorders have a physiological and biochemical basis that can be observable and she subscribed to a similar view point where it is not nature vs nurture, but that they are both interconnected and agrees that it's not just psychological, or "all in their head" when it comes to mental illness as well.
I’ve had lupus, fibromyalgia, endometriosis, chronic pain and chronic pancreatitis for 16years now so I completely understand your school stories as I spent most my school years in hospital also. I also understand your “in pain all the time so others can’t inflict pain on you” comment. I know this was uploaded 2 years ago but I’ve only just crossed this video now but I hope you have some awesome doctors helping you through all of it. I’ve had many surgeons and doctors give up on me also and it’s one of the worst feelings. Sending my love and strength to you from Australia 🐨 💜
I'm sorry Taylor 💕 We are all here for you and we know if your not posting love you 🤗✌🏼️
Came across your vid and saw the strength and courage for you posting this. By sharing your medical condition may help others who are also dealing with the same ailment to get comfort. Takes a lot of courage to share your personal life with the world. You never know that a specialist may come across this video and share alternative medications and remedies for this condition. Great vid and keep shooting for the stars..
I definitely understand, I have albinism and metal hypersensitivity. I make art and animations, but the brightness of the screen is very painful and I need strong sunglasses just to draw, I also cannot eat most food that others can eat and I need to wear gloves so I don't break out in hives. I also ended up getting really sick constantly in the 8th grade, they still made me go to the school building, but I stayed in one room doing work packets because my mom wouldn't and still won't let me be on an away from school program. I also have aspirgers syndrome which makes me want to go to school even less because I get really bad anxiety attacks constantly.
Wow. I'm so sorry that you've had to go through all that. It makes my occasional mild anxiety seem like absolutely nothing.
_Kira Rose_ don't think of it as nothing, everyone has issues whether they're born with them or they are developed over time. It may seem like a huge hindrance on people like Taylor and I, and although I sometimes wish I could live what society views as a normal life, the life I live now is my normal, it's something that can't be changed. What a normal day for me is a living nightmare for others, but I've had my entire 16 years of life to adapt to my surroundings, and to me it's the norm.
lilpeoplez It can be extra tough if you've got issues that are rare or uncommon. People will ask rude questions, undermine your struggles, ostracize you, etc. My family has the same rare hereditary muscle disease, but the severity varies by individual. My mom says she thinks I'm trying to be considered handicapped (I'm trying to get the diagnosis on my papers--it's not rn) so I could get a service dog or therapy cat, when it's because I want the info available in case I need something or there's an emergency. It's so frustrating.
lilpeoplez just stay strong, these are not small problems but you seem like a strong person❤
lilpeoplez I have adhd and pddnos which is sort of like asburgers syndrome
So awesome you did this vid
Do you feel better though? I hope you are!
im a bit late but girl I'm proud of you hope u have a happy life
I have the same thing with the lights, those hurt my eyes and since last year I've been getting migraines as well, although it's nowhere near as bad as you have/had it. You're super strong for putting out vids, never feel pressured to make them though. Do what you're comfortable with, people can afford to be patient and find entertainment in other places while you take the time you need before posting online.
My mom had to go to the Mayo Clinic as well. She was super sick, but we couldn't find out exactly what was wrong. So, we flew to the Mayo Clinic and stayed there for about 2 weeks. We came to the conclusion that she had some sort of auto immune disease (we weren't sure which one - maybe lupus) and many other problems. Luckily, she's doing amazing now, even though we didn't find out her exact diagnosis. Taylor, if you ever need a break from videos, take the break. You deserve it. Keep up your amazing work and never lose your kind personality. :)
This video gave me some hope. I also got diagnosed with hEDS (at 20) and I have gastroparesis, migraines and POTS. I was also sick a lot of my life and it's so difficult. Going to college has been a constant struggle. It makes me feel a lot less alone watching your videos. Thank you for sharing your story.
I don't personally have EDS but my best friend of 14 years does so whenever someone mentions it I perk up because I always send her channels of people with EDS so she has more people to relate to. Thanks for opening up about it, you will help encourage a lot of people who don't believe they can succeed in life because of their chronic illnesses. you're beautiful and brave and amazing, thanks for everything!
